    I would recommend the ergoclex website which has a sale on until 11pm tonight. Their density is 85kg/m3 which feels great :j
    Thanks kwaichi, I saw your blog about this mattress :D. I'm really tempted to buy it, but my wife moves quite a lot when she sleeps and I read some bad reviews from people who move a lot, that's why I want to get a "brick" of foam (I think that 85kg/m3 is just too much :p). I used to have a 35gm/m3 density mattress and it was just perfect, unfortunately now it's 17000 km away :(.

    Hi Tim,

    Just wanted to say thanks for your advice.
    Eventually went ahead and bought the Hypnos Evesham mattress. Looks very good value to me. It's firm which was exactly what i wanted.

    Slept in it for two nights now....no backpain in the morning. My old Simmons gave me backache everyday. This is wonderful. Looks very well made and feels great.

    Thanks!

    I'm happy to have helped you.:T

    The densities of reflex foam and memory foam will be completely different due to their different properties.

    If your wife likes to change position a lot at night, then 3.5" of 85kg memory foam will prove very restrictive. This is because due to the open celled structure of memory foam the air seeps out to allow the memory foam to mould to your body, and the deeper the memory foam the deeper you will sink. Also the recovery rate of V85 memory foam will be slow.

    With the reflex foam that you are used to it is closed celled, and is actually lots of bubbles which although they squash, they are still pushing back against you, and will provide a flatter surface.

    Good luck, because you can't return it once you have unpacked it :eek:

    I've had a word with my dad and he's now given me a budget of up to £300 to spend inc delivery (he's a Yorkshire man so doesn't like to throw away money :rolleyes::rotfl:)

    I'm lost looking on all the various sites could i get some more help please now that i have the budget and the spec (pocketsprung 800-1000 with 2" of memory foam)

    Thanks very much!

    Read the terms and conditions in this link: http://www.ergoflex.co.uk/legal-privacy.php

    It clearly says that you can't return it if it is opened. You can send it back within seven days if it is unopened. This just complies with distance selling regs.

    Have you any idea how much it would cost to return once it has benn unpacked?

    It's a big risk to take when they could just turn around and say "we didn't say that, read the t&c's".
